Set the fax error correction mode
Typically, the device monitors the signals on the phone line while it is sending or
receiving a fax. If it detects an error signal during the transmission and the error-
correction setting is on, the device can request that a portion of the fax be resent.
Turn off error correction only if you are having trouble sending or receiving a fax, and
you want to accept the errors in the transmission. Turning off the setting might be
useful when you are trying to send a fax to another country/region or receive a fax
from another country/region, or if you are using a satellite phone connection.
To set the fax error-correction mode
• Embedded Web server (network connection): Open the embedded Web server,
click the Settings tab, click Fax in the left pane, click the Advanced tab, select On
or Off in the Error Correction Mode drop-down menu, and then click the Apply
button.
• Control panel: Press Fax Menu, open the Advance Fax Setup menu, and then
use the Error correction mode option.
Set the dial type
Use this procedure to set tone-dialing or pulse-dialing mode. The factory-set default is
Tone. Do not change the setting unless you know that your phone line cannot use
tone dialing.
NOTE: The pulse-dialing option is not available in all countries/regions.
To set the dial type
• Embedded Web server (network connection): Open the embedded Web server,
click the Settings tab, click Fax in the left pane, click the Basic tab, make a
selection in the Tone or Pulse Dialing drop-down menu, and then click the Apply
button.
• Control panel: Press Setup, press Basic Fax Setup, and then use the Tone or
Pulse Dialing option.
Set the redial options
If the device was unable to send a fax because the receiving fax machine did not
answer or was busy, the device attempts to redial based on the settings for the busy-
redial and no-answer-redial options. Use the following procedure to turn the options on
or off.
• Busy redial: If this option is turned on, the device redials automatically if it
receives a busy signal. The factory-set default for this option is ON.
• No answer redial: If this option is turned on, the device redials automatically if the
receiving fax machine does not answer. The factory-set default for this option is OFF.
